Holy cow, how did you stack them all?
With great difficulty !
So, notwithstanding the fact that it is similar to your previous camera whatcha reckon, worth the extra?

One word comes to mind --- Glorious! As I type I am imaging the flame on a DSI II at 90sec. Thought the subs looked pretty good as they stacked - then I browsed this! Now I feel somewhat humbled...

Louie,
Man, what a beautiful image -- it pops!
I was wondering when you'd bite the bullet and get that monster of a camera.
Miss you, mate. All the best for this year.
Regards,
Humayun

Just curious, the left and right side of the frame look to be brighter like fog or something has affected the image, I haven't seen this before..? Is it in the field or some other effect

Yes Mike,I did notice this but decided to leave It alone in the end.
The cause ....can't be sure but possibly one of the global screen&Softlight layers I used to bring out faint dusty regions.

A stunning image indeed Louie.. You best get a framed copy up on your wall!  |
Not the same camera mate....I think Strongman answered the question perfectly...but having said that, If you can't get the Starlight get the QHY !
